Little Lion Man//Eric Northman [True Blood]

"You'll never be what is in your heart"

Fandom: True Blood
Song: "Little Lion Man" by Mumford & Sons
Description: I'm sure there are a few people out there who think this song doesn't really fit (since Eric is anything but little); however, I feel it works really well. I love Eric. I think he's a great, complex character, and I think that despite his best intentions (and sometimes not), things don't always seem to work out the way he wants. Also, I have to say, that minute-long music break in the middle killed me. It killed me dead.

Special thanks to MissDarkandTwisty for suggesting the song/fandom pairing. I think I started this video in August... Yeah, that was a long time ago!

This is the third of my "Sigh No More" project (where I challenge myself to use all of the songs on the Mumford & Sons album of the same name). The previous two videos can be seen here:

Love Love Love this video - the music if perfect (seriously, how can you not love some Mumford & Sons) and the subject matter is even more perfect :D His character has grown leaps and bounds since the first season, and Alexander Skarsgard is brilliant in the role (not to mention brilliantly good-looking :P )

This really shows how Eric often has good intentions and a "big heart", but still f*cks up some thing. We all do sometimes.

I gotta tell you how you put this together with the lyrics and showed exactly how he does f*** it up, but with the best of intentions really does go with this song. I really enjoyed this! :)
